Gosh what another busy month!
We have been beavering away here at Revive Health HQ, trying to help everyone's sore necks and backs as the weather has turned all of a sudden!
Our new Shockwave machine has proven to be a fantastic investment and is helping patients who have been suffering with long term issues as well as injuries that have occurred recently.
It's called Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) or simply a Shockwave Machine. It works by sending sound waves to cause a vibration (much like Therapeutic Ultrasound) and also pressure waves which cause a cavitation - a microscopic bubble which, when it bursts, will draw inflammatory cells to the area to kickstart your body into healing itself.
It can help with any form of tendon, ligament or muscle issues, including -
Tennis Elbow
Shoulder Rotator Cuff Pain
Frozen Shoulder
Achilles Tendinitis
Plantar Fasciitis
Sciatica
Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome
Bone Healing
We are offering Shockwave only packages for those that have any of the above conditions, please get in touch and we can sort out your consultation to make sure this is the right option for your condition.
We have had a fantastic report from one of our pro-cycling athletes who has had an ongoing hip issue for many years. Below is an abbreviated version, but you can read his full report here...
I am a 22-year-old semi-professional cyclist. This year Revive health reached out to me to offer their support in my pursuit to get to the top of cycle-sport. This year their support has been key in helping me to achieve 3 top 10s in national time trials. 19th in the national time trial championships and numerous open time trial victories and one road race victory. With each treatment (One treatment is 4 sessions of 15-20minutes of Shockwaves), I felt less and less tender in the entirety of the areas that we were treating. The acid test would be when I returned to training. The first session I did was just a short 1hr pre-fitness test ride. I felt amazing. My hips felt in perfect balance. I hadn't felt so at one with the bicycle for a long time. It very much feels like we have rectified whatever problem I had in my hip. It will be very exciting to see how my body holds up over time.
If you would like to discuss how we could help with your condition, be it a new or an oldie, please just reply to this email and we can give you a call. You can find out more information by the people that created our machine here -
For now, have a wonderful December and I hope you get out and enjoy the last of the Autumn leaves before we hit a full Winter!
From all of us here at Revive Health - Wishing you a Fantastic Month with Health, Wealth and Wellbeing!
TTFN :-)
